I can't remember the STP in #BusinessProposal at all , must refresh my memory. I only gave the #kDrama 7/10 so even the OTP didn't leave a huge impression on me.

In many East Asian Dramas, STPs can have more creative arcs, because they're not constrained by formulaic expectations for lead pairs. In #kDrama #MissKorea has a great STP and two of my favourites are Mandarin #cDrama #TheTaleOfRose and #twDrama #LoveTimeless I rewatched both FOR their STPs
